Enough Effort to Convince the Fickle

In a crowded space of cars, trucks and SUVs sometimes clinging to something different can be a horrible experiment. In the case of the new Ridgeline a different approach to the midsize truck ends up being one of the best ideas. Being different here has no ill effects. Honda has used much of what makes them a leader in the car and SUV segment to this truck. It serves as a utility vehicle those in urban and rural areas can proudly use.

The Ridgeline is not trying to be a full size or full blown hauler.

The Ridgeline is also not trying to be different for the sake of it.

The Ridgeline is not trying to replace the full size truck.

With that out of the way, we can admit and so can the mass driving public that trucks are often used on public roads.The Urban populace will love the Honda's road manors and drivability, handling and smoothness. Those in rural areas or truck enthusiasts will appreciate having a hauler for the lighter tasks that is easy to service, cheap to maintain and throw miles on. The benefit is those with larger trucks can save those for specific tasks/weekend duty and leave the nerf miles to the appliance.
